usefu, and Hurtful Medicins.

There is a certain class of remedies for constipation absolutely useless. These are boluses and potions made in great part of podophyllin. aloes, rhubarb, gamboge and other worthless ingre- dien.s. The damage they do to the stornaehs of those who use them is in- calculable. They evscuate the bowels, 1t is true, but always do so violently and profusely, and besides, gripe the bowels. Their effect is to weaken both them and the stomach. Better far to use the agreeable and salutary aperient, Hos- letters Stomach Bitters, tbe laxative effects of which IS never proceeded by pain or accompanied by a convulsive, violent action of. the bowels.

The Piano Reo,sai.

The rising oi the curtain at the opera house. on Saturday evening, disclosed a very pretty and unexpected picture to the fashionable audience there assem- bled, being the representation of a drawing-room finely furnished and the participants oi the recital seated in easy chairs. This innovation was good and pleasing one. bringing performers and and audience close together and giving ease to the more nervous oi the singers and players. The recital opened with an overture, Lustspiel, by Bela, played in a spirited manner by Mrs Ellis and Mir Thomas
 Mrs Ellis has proved herself in the rendition of her numbers on the pro gramme p:aniste Of the highest stand ing To non-musician ii looked ss if she was playing with the piano, so easy and free was her playing oi the most difficult passages by ThaIberg and Liszt In fact Mrs. Ellis IS so much master over all technical difficulties thatshe does not realize how iss. she takes her Tempi. s consequently her Andantes are occa- sionaliy more quasi aliegreto. Mrs. Ellis playedher four numbers on the programme without notes and % gave evidence of her dcvotioD to her art, for it takes hard work to memoriEe Lis1s and Thalberg. of the latter composers works she chose aElisir DAmore," a composition which requires an unlimited force and bril- iant technique. Mrs Ellis played this number 50 well that she was heartily eneored The interpretation of Liszt's campaDella was such that it would even have wrung applause from that greatest pianist ever alive. .
 The appearance of Miss Jessie E. Stevens WAS the signal for a very warm and welcome greeting. She sang Ziehrer's Flora. Polka deliciOusly and responded to an enthusiastic recall by singing aThe Old Folks at Home" in manner that held the audisnce spellbound.
 Miss Katie Tritle surprised her friends by her rendition of an air with variations from William Tell, on the harp in such manner that she was recalled twice Ia her duett with Mrs. Ellis she ae- quilted herself nobly as pianiste

ICONINiCNICATED,


Messrs. Editors Il promised in my last
10 write again Of thoughts and things seen
in the mean time. l spent a few days a
fortnight ago in Chaptico neighborhood.
Passing by the old Chaptico church was
pleased TO see the yard being newly en-
closed. The people in that section need
not feel ashamed of the care they take of
that spot fground-"God's acre'-so often
forgotten and neglected elsewhere. The
ladies of that Parish deserve much for the
earnest and successful efforts made in this
direction.
Passing down little further we came to
the Church of the Sacred Heart, one of the
oldest sites in the county The present
building is frame, but in good condition.
The churchyard is nicely kept and the
stately oaks, mixed in with the holly and
cedar and other native trees. with a carpet
of myrtle covering the ground, makes il
really one of the sweetest and most becom-
ing places in our county.
The little Methodist colored church, John
Wesley, stands back into the forest near
Budd's Creek. Its people deserve no less
credit than their white friends and neigh
bors in the care of their sick, needy and
dead. They have a society, the members
of which contribute literally and regular
ly to the above objects and their sick and
needy are nursed and provided for and their
dead laid at rest in becoming manner
not by strangers and at the public expense.
This may be and is sometimes necessary,
but il is one of the great scandals of our
coanty that so many of her people are bur-
led st the public expense.
| hear there are like societies in St
Inigo's district-the society of ST. Jerome
and the Gallilean Fishermen. hope they
will keep up their organizations and re-
ceive as they deserve the aid Of all who are
able 10 give. No other Of Gods animals
except man realizes death or hopes for inn
mortality, and the burial or disposal of the
dead in one way or another with the great
est care and respect has been the meek
characteristics Of the human family in all
ages, heather and Christian.
BY accident, in looking over some old
leases or grants dated some years before our
revolution, from the Proprietary Govern
ment of the then Province Of Maryland. Of
several tracts Of land in this neighborhood,
(Budd's Creek,l often called and written
improperly Binds Creek, the old papers
speak Of il as Budd's Greek, called, Hm
sure, from the early settlers Of that day. a
defendant Of whom is our wolthy friend,
Mr.. John l. Budd, living near by. These
leases were for long terms, and among the
conditions named therein were the two,
that the grantee should not only plant an
orchard Of apple trees, but keep the same
well fenced, and 10 renew those tha; died
oGt, 80 that AZ the end Of certain time the
grantee should have IN orchard Of nos less

Correspondence of the Beacon.l
CHAPrIco, Feb. 25, 1887.

SHAPrlCo, feo. 20, 1851.
Messrs. Editors Il would like very
much 70 pen you an interesting letter, but
really the present condition of roads rem
derS il almost impossible for one to travel
farther than duty calls him, consequently
gleanings are remarkably scarce.
Farmers appear TO take advantage OF
each favorable day to push their work. A
few have commenced blowing. Tobacco
beds have been seeded, and very many
have finished seeding their clover seed.
Schools are being fully attended, especially
No. 4 in 4th f. ID. and No. in 9th E. D.,
which are crowded.
Wheat prospect for this section is very
poor, indeed, although somewhat improved
by the recent open weather.
Your "cat problem" has commanded
considerable attention, that of your hum
BILE correspondent among the rest, and am
sorry 10 differ from the erudite gentlemen
who concur in the answer g. The solu-
ton, TO my mind, is automatic if We allow
the problem to stand correct; for clearly il
II cats catch II rats in II minutes, cat
can catch l rat in l minute, and TO catch
100 rats in so minutes, it would take 2 cats.
But being somewhat skeptical, must ques-
ton the correctness Of the problem, for it is
impossible for half q cat to catch half a
rat O.
Perhaps some of your readers can throw
some light on the following: "A is left a
widower with one child "a sony. Now A
subsequently, marries a daughter of b. In
time As son grows up, and he, too, mar
ries a daughter of B. which, of course, is
sister tc his fathers wife" Now the ques-
ton is, what relation is AS or the fathers
children to the sons children?
